I just realized the moment which was a big big crossroad in my life and where one decision in my life affected it in more ways than I could imagine.
It was some years ago, when I applied for EVS for the first time. I wanted to go to work with children in Italy in a place called Bari. I nearly got there but on the last minute I was told another girl was chosen for the project.
I would have gone to...

Am I just begin paranoid?
Posted on December 14, 2011 by Maria
After Putin's party won in Russia with obvious cheating (I mean 140% as the result of all the parties altogether in the elections), I've become a bit suspicious about everything. After Putin won, he told that USA has provoked the riots in Moscow and put all the blame on USA. Sounds like picking a fight? Oh alright.... Well, besides that, there were some news about Russia building some rocket thing...

I've got a nice life here and I've got friends. And until now I also had a nice work. I still have it in most ways, but I feel that even though I have the freedom to express my opinion, no one listens because I am simply a volunteer and shouldn't have a say in important things. Also, I have realized that whatever faces people make at your work (co-workers), if they aren't happy by something you say...

Speed of time
Posted on December 04, 2011 by Maria
I've noticed that recently all my co-workers have started to use more british humour with me and are trying to test how much I would understand. So far I've been doing quite well. I understand most of it. So they are testing me harder and harder. It's fun. We get to laugh a lot during our breaks. And the jokes are nasty and dirty. I love it! I had missed the irony and sarcasm a lot and now the brit...

Just another thought
Posted on November 27, 2011 by Maria
While I was busy counting months 'til I can return home, the time was flying past faster than the speed of light. And within a moment I realized it's nearly over - which made me count the days I've still got left to enjoy my life here.
In the meanwhile, while...

Realization of a life
Posted on November 21, 2011 by Maria
Today, when I went to the leisure centre, I got a lift with a friend of mine to there. When I stepped into the leisure centre, 3 of my aqua-fit and other classes friends came out. I just greeted them and then one of them dragged me with great enthusiasm to see one advertisement about a christmas evening and asked if I would join in, looking very happy and exited about it. I first thought, that I might...

Firstly, I'd like to apologize to all the people who have been waiting for this post the whole week (I know there are some) - I had to play the guitar for the residents at work this week so I had to practice this week. But now I'm gonna tell everybody a bit about...

The wonders of maths
Posted on November 18, 2011 by Maria
You want to buy a shirt that costs 97 pounds. You don't have the money so you borrow 50 pounds from your mum and 50 from your dad. 50+50=100
You buy the blouse and you have 3 pounds left. You give your mum 1 pound and your dad 1 pound and you have 1 pound left for yourself. You still owe your mum and dad both 49 pounds.
49+49+1 (pound that you have)=99
Where has one pound gon...
The reasons to love boot camp
Posted on November 18, 2011 by Maria
I absolutely hurt today after yesterdays' class. I sure as hell love it more than any of the other classes I'm doing altogether.
I did it so hard yesterday that at one point I was out of breath and felt I'm nearly gonna vomit. I didn't notice how I got that far. But I feel it all today. Every move I make is so painful. All the muscles in my body just kill me. But it's nice pain. It's lovely, because...

Climbing again
Posted on November 07, 2011 by Maria
Today there was a really nice and sunny autumn day outside (10 degrees), so I decided to go to the Gorge and use up parts of my Gorge&Caves Explorer ticket that I got from a friend of mine earlier this week.
So I went up to the Gorge, had a look into Coughs'...

Besides complaining about how much I miss Estonia, going to Leisure centre, playing guitar, planning my Scotland trip (mostly dreaming about things I'm gonna do and talking to Teele about it), sleeping, eating, watching movies, I also go to work. Yes, I haven't...

"Proud" Estonian
Posted on November 05, 2011 by Maria
Yesterday evening there was a big accident near my home and I read about it in the Estonian newspapers. Then I read the comments- they were about English people driving on the lefhandside and just with a bad tone towards English. And then I added a comment that I live near the place and am worried about my friends because they use the motorway the accident happened on, quite often. And then came all...

Bristol Zombie Walk 2011
Posted on October 30, 2011 by Maria
I'll start from the very beginning.
About a month ago a couchsurfing friend of mine made a post into facebook about a Zombie walk and I asked him what's it's all about. And he gave me the link to a Zombie walk group. Only the date of the walk was confirmed....
